As India aims high to broaden their renewable energy capacity and takes more stringent measures to improve the quality, DNV GL has officially launched its full suite of LVRT Testing services for the Indian wind market to support grid stability
The new ACES (Across Continents Electric Vehicle Services) project by the Center for Electric Power and Energy of DTU intends to investigate technical and economic system benefits and impacts by large scale electric vehicles integration in Bornholm. The project will
The effects of climate change increasingly impact the demand and need for cooling. VTT of Finland and German company ZAE Bayern have built an emission-free, solar-powered 10kW chiller. The project began in October 2013 and ended at the turn of
Denmark is one of the countries in Europe that has the largest amount of direct current (DC) connections, yet lacks methods for optimal coordination and management of them. DC connections are more flexible and more controllable than the AC connections
The COTEVOS project (Concepts, capacities and methods for Testing EV systems and their interOperability within Smart Grids) presents an updated version of its white book “Business Opportunities and Interoperability Assessment for EV Integration” aiming to raise the awareness on the
Power Technology,Inc., founded by a Sandia National Laboratories scientist-turned-entrepreneur, has received a license for a “home-grown” technology that could revolutionise the way solar energy is collected and used. The licensing agreement was signed between mPower Technology Inc. and Sandia for
As the number of renewables and smart electronics added to the electricity network is constantly increasing, the power grid must cope with more dynamic stress each year. Grid operators need to be able to locate and respond to faults in
The March/April issue of IEEE Power & Energy Magazine features new ideas and solutions on how to tackle challenges and take advantage of the opportunities of more distributed energy on the grid. The issue also presents case studies and lessons
The US National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has published a landmark report extensively detailing component and system-level cost breakdowns for residential PV solar systems equipped with energy storage. Though costs of solar systems are steadily decreasing while the economic viability
Smart grids link various types of energy technologies such as power electronics, machines, grids, and markets via communication technology, which leads to trans-disciplinary, multi-domain system. Simulation packages for assessing system integration of components typically cover only one sub-domain, while terribly
